I am having to replace flap on x-lg door after only 2 1/2 months of use bc it does seal on sides or bottom. Any suggestions or just get dif brand door

I have two different brands, in two different doors in the house, and these are my second set of each. So far, none of them will seal shut completely on the sides. The bottoms that have the magnets seal there, but there's always a gap along the sides.

I seem to recall them saying you can buy replacement flaps. But be aware if you're counting on this for "all weather," it doesn't keep the rain out unless you take extra measures to seal it properly when you install it.

This replacement flap has holes at the top.. to install you would remove the screws from the door frame, then remove the plastic piece, the old flask can then be removed.. replacement in reverse order. Be very Careful to not over tighten the screws... I know this was not a direct answer to your question but I thought if I explained the installation out might help you determine if it was the correct one. I hope this helps

The only way I have been able to completely and continuously seal out the hot & cold is to have at least one of the hard plastic slide-in doors in place, especially during our windy and tornado seasons. With only the soft flaps, a very slight amount of air may sneak by once in a while with gusty, stronger winds. We have this mounted in our kitchen dining area wall, and have recently had 1 and 2 ambient degree mornings, and the soft flaps have not allowed the cold air to pass. During the summer months of high temps and high humidity, the flaps seal very well, with air passage being a non-issue. We have tried many doors before this one, and none have measured up. The most important point regarding proper functioning of the door is the proper installation. Done well, the door performs admirably. It was only after 6 years of very regular, hard use by our four large dogs (and one small), that it needed to be replaced, as some of the weather strips had finally worn out. Hope this helps!

No.. did you take all of the protective covers off of the unit (including under the flap)?? Mine hasn't had any issues & does its job very well.

The size I bought (using the replacement # on the flap I have) did not fit my door. The installation holes weren't even close to lining up (yes, I flipped it over to make sure I had it on the right side) and the flap was at least an inch too short. If it gives the total measurements for the flap online, I would measure the one you already have before ordering.

WE just bought the replacement flap for our door with 2 large dogs using it daily. It was easy to replace, fit is fine. We are really happy with the replacement flap.

My frame is metal, as is the strip that holds the flap in place. My suggestion is to 1st ask the manufacturer what they've got. If they're no help solicit friends, etal who are handy and ask for assistance to make a replacement . . . a fairly simple form with drilled holes thru so current screws can fasten the flap. Be sure to fill the old screw holes with wooden matchstick ends to provide more 'bite' for the screws when reattaching the new strip.

Each door has a specific size that fit it. Large, extra lg. Etc. Also there are different brands of door. If yours is isn't an ideal product these flaps won't work for you.

The flap isn't bad...if the weather is incorrigible, I just put the door on that closes the flap. The part that needs to be sealed well is the other side of the door where the two sliding doors overlap. Be sure that is sealed well or you will be heating the outdoors.

I have used Flex seal (seen of TV product) and it works well BUT I would not move it around AFTER you apply it as it could reopen but it is still holding on mine going on 6 months now. Just learned not to move it once the FLEX SEAL was applied. :)

Is it the same brand? If the width and length are the same I would say yes. Even if the screw holes are in a different place you can always drill new screw holes through the flap. Can u not find that model number?

Depends on how old your door is. Our original door was about 5 years old, when I bought this replacement flap they had changed how the flap was attached at the top. We were unable to use the replacement flap.

Dear Rick So sorry to tell you this, but whatever you do, it won't work. They keep changing their sizes in this company. Go to the local pet store and buy this where you can measure it, and then return if it doesn't fit. We're going to have to buy a WHOLE NEW DOOR to use the one we got on line. Get my drift? This is not the best way to buy a replacement flap. You'll probably be sorry. Good luck!

Supposedly, but I've been using the case for two and a half months, and I have gotten the "check battery cover" pop-up message informing me that the seal is not intact more times than I can count, despite correct installation and with no provoking incident. I have no faith that the water-resistant seal is maintained with this case, which is why I will be returning it--I think it will be better protected from spills with the original back.

Replacement flaps are available. I've ordered them twice now. I don't know about the 'lock-out' door but I would guess it should be available also.

sounds like you have the same door as me. the flaps do NOT work on mine. there is only one in the package and it is the wrong one
